Hutchinson, KS: LWB Publishing (1st Edition, 1998). Like new hardcover with maroon boards, gilt and silver titles/illustration, 185 pages. No dust jacket (as issued).

ABOUT THE BOOK: "Fitting together the pieces of this book was like putting together a gigantic puzzle, collecting items of information from many sources and shaping the work until the total picture came into focus. I could not have accomplished this without the help of many people, especially Dorothy Ballhagen, my cousin Wayne Ballhagen's widow, who lives in New Hartford, Iowa. Her research into the Bollhagen and Ballhagen family history gave me material for fashioning the tale. I also had help from brothers and sisters, namely June Docherty at Buffalo, Minnesota, who not only contributed historical data but also loaned me priceless photos of the Metz family. Lamoine Herrman, an older sister, at Big Stone City, South Dakota, gave me information, but also tipped me off to Helen Butler, who supplied vital data on the Metz family." Lloyd Ballhagen

ABOUT THE AUTHOR: Lloyd W. Ballhagen (1931 - 2020) of Hutchinson, Kansas, was Chairman of the Board and CEO of the Harris Media Group. Lloyd served as chairman of the KPTS Channel 8 (public television) board of trustees for two years, and was a member of that board for twenty years. In addition, he was chairman of the Reno County Chapter of the American Red Cross for two years, and vice-president of the Reno County Historical Society. Lloyd also served as a board member of the Kansas Cosmosphere and Space Center for six years, during the building of its first major facility. Other organizations Lloyd was involved in were board of trustees of the Kansas 4-H Foundation for five years, a charter board member of Skylights, Inc. (a teenage drug and alcohol treatment center), vice-president and board member of the Hutchinson Symphony, twice a member of the board of Hutchinson Friends of the Library and editor of the Friends' newsletter. Lloyd also served on the boards for Kansas Friends of the Library, Inland Daily Newspaper Association, and was a member of the American Newspaper Publishers Association government committee.
